  2. Period 6 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_6_element

    A period 6 element is one of the chemical elements in the sixth row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements, including the lanthanides.The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate recurring (periodic) trends in the chemical behaviour of the elements as their atomic number increases: a new row is begun when chemical behaviour begins to repeat, meaning that elements ...

  3. Omega-6 fatty acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-6_fatty_acid

    The evening primrose flower (O. biennis) produces an oil containing a high content of γ-linolenic acid, a type of omega−6 fatty acid.Omega−6 fatty acids (also referred to as ω−6 fatty acids or n−6 fatty acids) are a family of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) that share a final carbon-carbon double bond in the n−6 position, that is, the sixth bond, counting from the methyl end.

  4. Period (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_(periodic_table)

    In the periodic table of the elements, each numbered row is a period.. A period on the periodic table is a row of chemical elements.All elements in a row have the same number of electron shells.

  5. Group 6 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_6_element

    Group 6, numbered by IUPAC style, is a group of elements in the periodic table.Its members are chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), and seaborgium (Sg). These are all transition metals and chromium, molybdenum and tungsten are refractory metals.

  6. Malacia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malacia

    Malacia is abnormal softening of a biological tissue, most often cartilage.The word is derived from Greek μαλακός, malakos = soft. Usually the combining form-malacia suffixed to another combining form that denotes the affected tissue assigns a more specific name to each such disorder, as follows:

  7. Organometallic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organometallic_chemistry

    A steel bottle containing MgCp 2 (magnesium bis-cyclopentadienyl), which, like several other organometallic compounds, is pyrophoric in air.. Organometallic compounds are distinguished by the prefix "organo-" (e.g., organopalladium compounds), and include all compounds which contain a bond between a metal atom and a carbon atom of an organyl group.

  8. Standard state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_state

    The standard state of a material (pure substance, mixture or solution) is a reference point used to calculate its properties under different conditions.A degree sign (°) or a superscript Plimsoll symbol (⦵) is used to designate a thermodynamic quantity in the standard state, such as change in enthalpy (ΔH°), change in entropy (ΔS°), or change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG°).

  9. Serial dilution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_dilution

    Serial dilution is one of the core foundational practices of homeopathy, with "succussion", or shaking, occurring between each dilution.In homeopathy, serial dilutions (called potentisation) are often taken so far that by the time the last dilution is completed, no molecules of the original substance are likely to remain.
